Tyler Perry didn’t take long to address the backlash from casting Kim Kardashian in “Temptation: Confessions of a Marriage Counselor.” The fan disapproval coincided with Kardashian’s divorce, which Perry said happened between the time he had hired her, and when the casting was made public. “I thought and still do think, that it would be very responsible of her to be a part of this film,” the director wrote in November 2011 (via Us Weekly). Perry believed that having the SKIMS honcho in a film about the repercussions of cheating on a spouse could potentially enlighten fans. “Millions of young people adore her and are following her every move,” he added.
A few years after “Temptation” was released, a fan asked Perry how it was to work with Kardashian. The “Why Did I Get Married?” director had high praise for the reality TV star. “Kim is very, very professional,” Perry said on “Watch What Happens Live” in 2016. “She’s on time, she’s prompt, she does what she’s supposed to do. She was really great to work with.” While promoting the film in 2013, Perry mentioned how Kardashian’s personality had shone through on-screen. “She’s just very direct and to the point — and she’s funny,” he told Fandango at the time. Kim Coleman, the casting director for “Temptation,” also praised Kardashian’s on-set behavior. “She just fit perfectly with everyone else,” Coleman told Vibe in 2013.
